    On a very hard day for my family where we awoke to some very shocking sad news, your video is exactly what I need to remember to smile and see that life does go on , even when my heart is broken in a million pieces 💔 .
    Thank you for being such a HAPPY GO LUCKY DUDE who absolutely pushes past the hard parts of life and allows all of us to giggle or laugh out loud with your antics. Things that go bump in the night dont scare you as much as compressed air blowing your way. I DONT BLAME YOU ❤❤😊

    The old Haunted Adventure involved a coffin making company called Grimsby and Streaper, cleverly hiding within the title "Grim Reaper." There was a large creepy elevator that would take you to the top. The whole experience was much darker and a victorian era horror affair that delt with a Jack the Ripper-esque serial killer. Lots of automated scares, and one scare actor that would play multiple roles throughout the house.

  • @Deathhasuspartx

    One thing I like about carpetbagger is that he doesn't complain. Regardless of the attraction, he finds joy and enjoys the experience. Bc experience is what it's about. The attraction could be mediocre, lame, or awesome and yet he's still gonna enjoy it and get what it gives. It's refreshing to not hear a complainer lol

    The use of buttons in the Haunted Adventure is super cool! Reduces the jump scare factor a little bit (you know *something* is going to happen), but it still gets some spooks since you're basically making the audience participate in their own scares. I'd love to see it used at other places.

    I do remember when the whole section was the haunted adventure attraction. They used to have an employee stand outside and say things to people walking by trying to get them to do it. I remember this because I had one of them yell out at me one time “you should be out here working instead of me, you have on more makeup than I do.” Fun times 😂

    The Gay Dolphin was a family vacation staple and a fond memory of mine. I believe in the 90s, the open center part with the hanging string lights had either oil (or water?) dripping down long wires/string. That place really is unique. I’m glad it’s still around

    In the haunted area you kept missing the secret phases which was the clues he mentioned ..they were all around you.
    If I could get on a ferris wheel I would but I am like you I walk around parks by myself all the time and can't get on the giant ferris wheel either
    Oh another reason why in case of emergencies that may cause problems like a panic attack or extreme fear or seizure etcetera, the other people can alert others about what's going on and if your by yourself well unless the instructor that at the bottom see you they will not know what's going on up there.

    @bearmeetsworld Před 27 dny +1

    As someone who was once in management in the parks industry, most ride operators are instructed not to allow single riders on Ferris Wheels because of safety issues, but that is not the truth. In management they never wanted the operators to know the truth and tell the park goers. In actuality it's about $. If you allow single riders then lines for the rids would be 2 or even 3 times longer along with the wait. This would discourage patrons from entering your park, therefore you're losing money. The question by some is why isn't this allowed when there are very few people waiting? It's for consistency of policy. The same way the speed limit on a highway doesn't change if there is 1 car or 1,000 cars.

    That crazy golf place sure puts an interesting twist on mini golf! That looked like a lot of fun.
    I'm also somebody who has always enjoyed doing things by myself. I love being able to go as fast or as slow as I want without worrying about other people getting bored spending time in front of things that interest me or speeding past things that don't. I think we autistics are much more likely to do things alone because we don't feel the social pressure that neurotypical people feel when they're alone. To them, it often feels weird or uncomfortable or self-conscious or even lonely. Not me.
    Thinking about pressed pennies in the late 19th century, that would have been a much more expensive souvenir than they are now, almost like destroying a $5 bill for fun (OK, more like about $3.50, if the source I checked is accurate). I love that they're now a small, affordable souvenir!
